Of course, you have not refuted my assertion that the Sierra Club has been proponent of shifting freight moved by trucks off the I81 corridor onto parallel railroad lines.
As far as the Sierra Club calendar goes, here is what it says in my 2012 calendar:
"The interior of this Sierra Club calendar is printed on paper containing a minimum of 505 recovered waste, of which at least 10% of the fiber content is postconsumter waste. The virgin component of thie apper is chlorine free and entirely from tree farms."
So not as a good as total recylcing, but not so bad as you make them out to be, either.
